Bad Traits Reworked

Description
Total War: Attila has definitely better characters' traits mechanics than Total War: Rome II. Bad traits aren't usually so much damaging as they were in Rome II and their triggers are also (usually) better designed. But there are still some flaws. So similarly to TWR2 I made this mod for TWA which rebalances the triggers for some traits to occur, especially the bad ones.

Bad traits (combined with great politics in this game) are entertaining gameplay element - nobody is perfect so why should be your generals? :)

Therefore this mod tries to keep things balanced and doesn't remove them completely. Instead, it modifies the traits' probability values so the most annoying ones should be reduced, for example the "Arrogant" trait received just for winning (!) battles, bad traits for post-battle enslaving/slauhgtering, bad traits for long garrisoning, too frequent bad traits upon agent creation etc.

This mod doesn't change any trait attributes, just the probability of traits to occur.

Compatibility
Compatible with all DLCs. Save game compatible (you don't have to start a new game in order to use this mod, but take into account that existing traits won't be removed). Should be compatible with most other mods (but probably not with other mods modifying the traits' triggers).

All mutually compatible.

I can confirm this still works as intended. I just did a file compare with the script from the CA packfile and the only changes are the chance values for negative vs positive traits. Also, it fixes a lot of my frustration with the base game.

old mods (due to workshop file format used .bin files ) get unpacked (to a .pack file) and copied to the games data folder when u sub and then when run the game launcher (the launcher unpacks and copies them)

So when you unsub they don't get deleted properly and have to be manually deleted from the games data folder.

Mod launcher doesn't look at when game was last patched its purely date based

this is Patch history ie last update was 25/02/16

Been a few patches now in the past year. Mod manager has this mod flagged as outdated, does it need to be updated or nah?

Got it to work. I guess I have to do some things in a very specific order. Not sure exactly what it was since I tried all of these previously, but here is what I did: first I unsubscribed in launcher and in steam. Second, I closed, opened, and closed again the mod manager. Third I restarted steam and resubscribed. At that point the mod finally downloaded for real and showed up on the content folder.

I'm having trouble with the workshop downloading this mod. I downloaded 7 others just fine so not sure what's up. I've unsubscribed, resubscribed, restarted steam/launcher. It's folder never shows up in the content folder even though it shows it being downloaded in steam and even the mod launcher shows a little download symbol for a brief moment before appearing like the rest. I notice a few people here and there in the comments section saying the mod doesn't work. Makes me wonder if they actually have the same problem as me. Does it have something to do with the mod manager saying the mod is out of date?

Anyone know what the problem could be?

Nekcarb: This mod should still work as intended. As far as I know there hasn't been any new game patch since Feb 2016.

I know you're probably retired but do you have any friends or know of a modding community you could share this with to get updated? Please and thank you!
